Frequently asked questions

What happens in my first studio session?

You can expect that you will have a 1:1 introduction to the Pilates Method and its underlying fundamentals to movement. Don’t worry if you forget some things or are unsure. Like anything practice makes perfect and we will build on this week to week. Wear comfortable clothing that you like to wear exercising but note loose shorts are probably best avoided unless you wear fitted shorts underneath. Bring a water bottle, towel and wear socks for your comfort and hygiene.

What can you expect in the class?

We don’t break our classes up into beginner, intermediate etc. With only 4 per class we can tailor the session just for your level and needs and this gives you flexibility on choosing a class time no matter what. Our online classes offer progressions starting off at beginner levels and working into more advanced stages so you have choice on where you fit into the session. There are specific classes with varying topics to also help you decided what you want to work on.

I am injured? Can I still do Pilates?

Absolutely, the wonderful world of Pilates provides modifications and variations to suit injuries and pathologies. We can work with your allied health professional to ensure you stay safe but get great results as part of your rehabilitation in the studio or online.
